Note: The audience for this e-course are Reaching Home Designated Community Entities (DCEs) in BC.

New tools have been developed to help DCEs in BC determine their options related to the use of HIFIS for:

• Furthering the implementation of Coordinated Access in their communities;
• Meeting local data and information management needs, including those of the DCE and Service Providers in the homeless-serving system; and,
• Minimizing duplication of efforts and maximizing service coordination and data integrity given the existence of BC Housing’s HIFIS and Coordinated Access & Assessment initiative.

These tools include a new System Mapping Guide and System Mapping Tool, as well as several HIFIS-specific documents.
